We proudly partner with PALCI

Bjork Library is excited to announce we have joined PALCI (Pennsylvania Academic Library Consortium, Inc.), which offers new ways to access books and research materials with no cost to you. With over 80 member institutions across Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, and West Virginia, PALCI dramatically expands the resources available to you.

There are now two ways to borrow beyond our shelves:

1. EZBorrow – Fast, Easy Delivery

  • Search EZBorrow with your GoStockton login.
  • Request books directly from 80+ academic libraries.
  • Receive items in 3–5 business days, typically.
  • Pick up items at the Library Services Desk.

2. Faculty On-Site Borrowing – Visit in Person

  • Faculty can visit participating PALCI libraries and borrow materials on-site. View the list of participating libraries and their policies.
  • Complete an Authorization Form at our Library Services Desk before your visit.
  • Take the form (and your Stockton ID) with you to the host library.
  • Check out materials under that library’s policies and due dates.

Together, EZBorrow and On-Site Borrowing open the door to a world of research materials and academic collaboration across the region. Whether you need a book delivered quickly or want to explore another campus library in person, PALCI makes it possible.
